Alder has a fine, even, and generally straight grain with a uniform, velvety texture. The colour ranges from pale tan to a reddish-brown, which tends to darken with age, and its closed pores create a smooth appearance. All wood used is UK grown and UK sourced.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Irish Grover';\"\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Irish Grover';\"\u003eA crafted handle blank made from natural wood enabling the buyer to finish.

I do not recommend or use threaded rods. Wood is a natural material and should be allowed to move and flex. Using a threaded rod does not allow natural movement of the wood therefore is liable to cause breakout.\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Irish Grover';\"\u003eAbout me\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Irish Grover';\"\u003eYou can find The Jackdaw Workshop on most social media platforms, where I share handmade creations, workshop updates, and nature-inspired products.
